Dale's Chicken and Homemade Noodles

Boil whole chicken, breasts or thighs in a generous amount of water until tender. Remove chicken and cut in pieces. Cover.

Noodles: 1 egg, 1/2 cup of milk, one tsp salt, and beat. Then add enough flour and knead until you have a soft dough. Roll out on an oiled or floured counter until very thin. (they thicken while cooking).

Take a sharp knife and make strips about a half inch wide. (They may sit for an hour or two or put directly into the boiling water.) Add them one at a time to keep them from sticking together. Simmer until done.

Then add cooked frozen string beans (I like the wide ones if you can find them, but any string beans will do) and carrots that you have cooked and buttered. (This is a whole package of frozen green beans and a package of carrots.) Then return chicken pieces. Add one to two cans of mushroom soup.

Add salt and pepper to taste and dried onion pieces or onion salt.

This will make a whole big pot of chicken and noodles. You will see you need at least a pot half full of water and then the soup. It lasts in the fridge for several days, but Dale's never does. It's eaten up!!
